Original class size: 80 How many original students graduated (no rollbacks): 17 Class 234 roll ins graduated: 8 Total class graduation size: 25 Graduation Date:June 1, 2001. Here’s a copy of the graduation program that I obtained:
Originally from Irvine, CA. Gettys was probably the most filmed candidate in the documentary. As the highest ranking member of the class, he was also incidentally the officer in charge (the OIC). Related Article: Navy Enlisted And Officer Ranks And Pay As the OIC, the instructors paid him a lot of (unwanted on his part, most likely) attention. Not ...
Originally from Luling, LA. Rivera was the class LPO, or leading petty officer, and at 29 years of age, one of the oldest in the class. He was probably best known for not only his tenacity, but also for the fact that it was his 3rd attempt at BUD/S. Rivera was known as a class motivator, pushing other students to overcome their own mental and physi...
Originally from Spotswood, NJ. (which is actually about 30 min. south of where I grew up) Justin Legg was another class favorite, and received a decent amount of camera time. The first few times I watched it, I was always getting Legg and Gettys mixed up because they looked so alike (at least in my eyes). Justin Legg graduated from the US Naval Aca...
Petty officer Ryan Bischoff successfully completed hell week with Class 234, but was having some issues during dive phase (phase 2) of training. After numerous unsuccessful attempts at passing pool comp, he was rolled to BUD/S class 235 and ordered to start on Week 1 day 1. He ended up graduating with Class 235 and moving on to the teams, serving f...
Originally from Aurora, CO. Potter was made famous in the movie “Lone Survivor”, successfully answering a math question posed by Instructor Patstone. You might remember it, but here’s the clip in case you don’t: He was also the dude that was discovered to have an underweight pack in Phase 3 (land warfare), along with Lively.
Originally from Las Vegas, NV. I don’t remember Chayra as much I as I remember Legg, Gettys, or Rivera, but that could just be because he didn’t seem to get that much camera time. Chayra served as a SEAL until 2006.
Originally from Poway, CA. Kolarov always struck me as a very intelligent guy. In one scene in the BUD/S class 234 documentary, each boat crew was instructed to complete a task. I can’t remember exactly what the task was, but it involved log PT. Out of all of the boat crews, Kolarovs’ crew was the only one that completed the task exactly as it was ...
Originally from Bolingbrook, IL. Justin Carr is another one of the students that received limited camera time, but he did in fact graduate with class 234.
Originally from Dallas, TX. Holley didn’t get that much camera time either, but he did in fact graduate from Class 234. Prior to BUD/S, he graduated from the US Naval Academy. After graduating, he served as a SEAL officer at SEAL Team 5 for 5 years, a completed four deployments to Iraq and Southeast Asia. (Source)
